Josh Ronsen formed brekekekexkoaxkoax as a vehicle for solo
prepared guitar performances in 1996, but collaborations with other artists
as equals started on day one. Rick Reed first projected his film work
at the first brekekekexkoaxkoax performance.

A brekekekexkoaxkoax experience can include noise, light, movement,
blindfolds, handphones (hand-mounted speakers), literature, performance
art, foil, string. There is no common thread of reason which links all
brekekekexkoaxkoax events. Instead, each one opens new methods of creativity,
exploring new modes of internal (unconscious?) desire.

The 67 brekekekexkoaxkoax performaces occured mostly in Texas, but also
in Chicago, Buffalo and Boston. The Austin Chronicle called it “a free-jazz traffic
jam” and “somewhat provocative, but carelessly assembled.” Greek
composer Costis Drygianakis remarked “the best example of minimalism I've
heard in years.” Ken Freidman wrote of the 2004 Flux Cafe event:
“a unique presentation in the history of Fluxus.”
